Sunday, 28July, 2013: Olympia to Blake Island

Weather:  Broken and cool.  Winds:  Light and variable.  Seas:  Flat.

Motored out of Olympia around 0800 headed towards home.  North out of Budd Inlet to Dana Passage and out Nisqually Reach.  Timing at Tacoma Narrows was good hitting the slack.  Around Point Defiance and north into Colvos Passage to Blake Island.

The marina at Blake Island State Park is...not really tight, more like awkward.  Just not an efficient dock layout.  Found dock space available.

Walking the dogs on the island was interesting...lots of deer and racoons.  Fortunately the racoons were not aggressive, but would occupy your boat if food (read:  trash) was left out.  Dogs got really curious when a raccoon walked down the dock and disappeared over the side and disappeared under!

Showers were nice.  Island had a lot of space and the campground was not crowded.  Nice views of Seattle!
